| 설명 | 핵의학적 진단방법중 하나. 가장 발달된 형태의 핵의학적 진단방법이다. 양전자를 방출함으로써 생기는 핵의학적 방사능을 이용하여 인체의 단면을 촬영할 수 있다. 이것은 마치 컴퓨터단층촬영과 유사하나, 조영제와 X-선을 사용하지 않는다는 점에서 다르다. 이용하는 핵의학적 물질을 인체내에서 대사가능한 물질(예를 들어 포도당, 혹은 지방)에 붙여서 사용함으로써, 실제적으로 살아있는 생체내에서 어떤 형태로 대사가 이루어지는 지 알아낼 수도 있다. 예를 들면, 눈을 뜨고 어떤 물체를 주시할 때, 뇌의 어떤 부위가 가장 활발한 대사작용을 하는지 알 수 있다. |

| positron emission tomography | <radiology> A highly specialised research imaging technique using short lived radioactive substances - usually those made with a cyclotron. This technique is very sensitive in picking up active tumour tissue but does not measure the size of it. Tomographic images are formed by computer analysis of photons detected from annihilation of positrons emitted by radionuclides incorporated into biochemical substances; the images, often quantitated with a colour scale, show the uptake and distribution of the substances in the tissue, permitting analysis and localization of metabolic and physiological function. Because the half-lives of the radionuclides are so short (20 minutes to 2 hours), and the equipment expensive, PET is rarely used in a clinical setting. But since its development in the mid-1970s, it has proved the most important tool yet devised for experimental investigation of the living brain, whether healthy, traumatised, or diseased. With CT and MRI, it represents a new generation of computer imaging techniques that have revolutionised medicine and physiology. Acronym: PET (20 Jun 2000) |
| positron e. |
a form of radioactive decay in which a positron (β+) and neutrino are ejected from the nucleus as a proton is transformed into a neutron. Collision of the positron with an electron causes annihilation of both particles and conversion of their masses into energy in the form of two 0.511 MeV gamma rays.
